I think chiffon would be lovely, but in order to make the fit less boxy, I think you need to add darts, at least in the back. That’s what would work for me, but then again, everyone is built differently :)

It’s a gauzey cotton, it’s textured like linen. Sorry, I can’t be more precise but it had been in my stash for years. Anyway, it gives a nice body to the bow, so it doesn’t look floppy.
Good luck with your blouse! :)
